  1. Muslims are forbidden to drink beers.
  2. So, a failed state looks very much like the ultra minimal state dreamed about by right-wing libertarians.
  3. For instance, modern people like to think that primitive people invoke the gods when they are on the verge of starving. This perception has to be reversed. When they are on the verge of starving, the primitives see in that situation some divine sign that they have made something reprehensible in the eye of this god: this god is angry at this people and dryness is a punishment.
  4. "think global, act local"
  5. What you think is here a capacity to be objective is, in fact, only and barely an inter-subjective capacity.
  6. Godliness is an altered state of a busy mind.
  7. An artist may served as goodwill ambassador but not as efficiently as your own daughter becoming the spouse of your enemy.
  8. Ass is an animal that can work for you.
  9. What is science-made is the demographic explosion and the general elevation of oceans level.
  10. Scientists have recently learnt that getting at an objective reality is impossible. Religious people never stop repeating that it should not have being attempted. Religious consciousness (sudden revelation) is this subjective distance from the projects (science being one of them) generated by our hubris.
  11. Tsunami and other disasters are mostly science-made events. You have to be dangerously naive to think more science will decreasing sufferings. What is less comforting is to follow Jesus' example to find peace.
  12. In Asia, Nirvana is not grunge music.
  13. The base Al Qaeda is bigger than pine.
  14. Doubting these Muslim girls will have dates is doubting terrorists aren't interested by alliances anymore.
  15. The only self-correction that is sound is admitting the Original Sin.
  16. No peace treaty concluded without exchanging daughters as brides.
  17. Destroying one's self-will is Asian's main freedom conception.
  18. Don't bet on that, Omar has not only brothers but sisters who may all well give his name to their sons.
  19. Where he is, he is a martyr and martyrdom is inspiring terrorist vocations.
  20. Basically, the impression that humans have invented God to deal with their weaknesses has to be reversed. It makes more sense to feel that it takes a God to think that inventing such powerful specie like humans are was a good idea.
  21. Contentment comes with a civilization that is less individualistic (i.e. West-like), more collectivistic (i.e. East-like).
  22. In his position, Omar Khadr is not terrorizing anyone.
  23. Religions come from the consciousness that humans, unlike any other living specie, have the power (through science, nowadays) to easily kill everything.
